The slope of the current line is -2/7. To find the slope of the line perpendicular to it, find the negative reciprocal of the slope. So it would be 7/2. The y intercept or the b would remain the same so the equation would be y=7/2x+8. Hope this helps.

Answer:

The slope of this line would be 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, you need to know that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. This means we take the slope of the original line (-2/7) and change the sign to get 2/7. Now we flip the fraction to get 7/2, which would be your new slope.

Find the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the polynomial function defined below. f(x)=2(3x+4)(x^2+2)
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to find out the answer to your question is to graph the cubic. As you can see, the y intercept is (0,16).

How was this obtained. notice that if x = 0 then

f(0) = 2(3*0+4)(0^2 + 2)

f(0) = 2(4)(2)

f(0) = 16 just as the graph tells us.

Find the vertical asymptotes, if any, of the graph of the rational function.
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

There is a vertical asymptote for the rational function at x = −4. Set the denominator equal to 0 and solve for x.

2x + 8 = 0 → x = −4
